Ethernet, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highly flexible package. In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter upper case) refers to your 16 or 24 Port 10/100/ 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches.
Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of standard Ethernet technology is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments.
Other VLAN benefits include: Security Cost Reduction Port-based (or port-group) NetComm 16 or 24 port Gigabit Switch Security is increased with the reduction of opportunity in eavesdropping on a broadcast network, because data will only be switched to those confidential users within the VLAN.

Package Contents Open the shipping cartons of the Switch and carefully unpacks its contents. The carton should contain the following items: ■ One 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch (available in either 16-Port or 24- Port models) ■ One AC power cord ■...
Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the hub for ventilation. ■ Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight, or in an EIA standard-size equipment rack. For information on rack installation, see the next section, Rack Mounting.
AC Power The Switch uses AC power 240V AC, 50 Hz. The power switch is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the AC power connector and the system fan. The Switch may be turned on without having any or all LAN segment cables connected.
This chapter describes the front panel, rear panel, and LED indicators of the Switch. Front Panel The figure below shows the front panels of the 16-Port Switch and the 24-Port Switch. Front panel of 16-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch Front panel of 24-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch...
AC Power Connector: Reset: Note: Be sure that you record your Switch’s settings before pressing the Reset button, as any changes to the default will be lost.

Port Mirroring is a method of monitoring network traffic. Port Mirroring forwards a copy of each incoming and/or outgoing packet from one port of a network switch to another port where the packet can be studied. It enables the manager to keep close track of switch performance and alter it if necessary.
The Statistic Menu screen will show the status of each port packet count. Figure 23. Statistic For Detail packet information, click on the ID parameter as Figure 24. Figure 24. YML711 Rev1 NetComm 16 or 24 port Gigabit Switch www.netcomm.com.au...
